Back and ready to go

Well, that drive to get out and create great photographs is back. I cannot wait to get back out there to see what I can find. The last 8 weeks have been brutal for me and it feels like I have weathered the storm....at least this one for now. It feels great to have that excitement back. I have truly missed it.

So, what to do? Where to go? What new techniques do I want to try? Don't know.........best way to find out is to get out there and drive, find those back roads again and do my best to "get lost". Now that fall has passed, color becomes a tough find. For me, winter is all about barren landscapes and new weather obstacles. Do I attempt another early morning in the dead of winter hike to the top of Devils Lake?? I've survived two of those already. Will I be pushing my luck with a third?

I met a lot of great people during my shows this year and many of them gave me directions to places that they thought I would find interesting. Maybe that will be my plan. Follow the notes that I took and see what happens

All I know is that I belong behind the camera and that is where I am going to go.....back to my sanctuary, back to the place that brings me peacefulness. I'll do my best to continue to bring you the best photos that I can produce. Thanks for hanging with me.
